    I need to reformat, but I can't delete the partition by running the windows XP disc, then going to setup and deleting the partition, it gives me the line "Can't delete this partition, contains temporary setup files." So, my question to you is, how do I delete this partition? I don't have a floppy so don't suggest delpart.exe or fdisk.exe because they are both useless without a floppy drive... So anything else I can do?

    Also, I have 107 gigs of unpartitioned space on this hard drive ( dont ask ) If I do a clean install of windows on that partition, then can I go back and delete the old partition, but then add that space to the new partition..? If you understand me.

    u could:

    do installation on the 107gigs part , install partition magic 8 and then delete the old part using that program ( its used inside windows so its easy ) then merge both parts...
